Hello,
Arm is explicitly managed to prevent such a scenario to happen. Where things can and do diverge is the boot mechanism and peripherals, even if it has been getting better with time. (Arm servers and Windows on Arm machines using UEFI + ACPI)
However, for user-mode code, compatibility is mandated and checked by Arm, even for designs not made by them. As such, don't worry about it.
